I've had a busy few weeks, spinning, weaving and sewing. Finally It's ready to wear. The photo shows my jacket almost finished, just waiting for lots of hand stitching. Might give it an airing tomorrow. flic.kr/p/T6Ri7a Fabric fresh off the Loom flic.kr/p/S4qcot Almost finished jacket

Judith - that's amazing - what an achievement! The jacket is beautiful and I would be tempted to sew a label on the back informing everyone just how handmade it is.

Now that is Haute couture! I can imagine a conversation when you get a compliment'Oh, that's lovely!' You:Thanks, I made it myself'...'Oh, where did you get the fabric?' 'I wove it myself'... 'But where did you get the threads?' 'Yep, made em, myself, from wool' etc!! It looks great on you too
